    This is going to be the most one sided poll ever.

    Mainly because the majority of 22-year-olds on this forum have only ever seen the Ruiz vs. tua bout, and have never even seen Dempsey fight.

    Everybody knows Ruiz sucks though.

    Yes, because Ruiz was so impressive in other bouts.:roll:

    Anyone with a computer has probably seen Dempsey fight. Not modernized IMO, but ferocious and powerful enough to take Ruiz out, and his Dempsey roll was a pretty useful tool by any standards.

    Not only does Ruiz suck. Dempsey is one of the greatest fighters ever. My Grandfather and his older brother had a chance to watch Dempsey train. They said the sparring sessions were like releasing a wild animal on an infant. They guy was fast, strong and viscious as hell.

    Ruiz fights around 225, has a one inch height and reach advantage on Dempsey. Dempsey fought around 188-190 pounds. Easy Ruiz decision. He would employ his pop and hold technique.

    Willard was 6'6.5" with a 5" reach advantage and weighed 245 when he fought Dempsey. How did that workout for him?
